Yesterday I found a bit of information when I was browsing GO's web site on a mobile phone. According to that info, the company has been sourcing the cases from the third party. Is this true? For some odd reason, I cannot locate this bit of information any more.

Also, what is the threshold for the German value-add that must be present in a product that carries "made in Germany" mark? I know that for Swiss watches it is about 60% (so 60% of the value may come from Swiss makes and the rest is from who-knows-who).
